{{quote|''"Y aquí me tienes... en esta celda donde pasaron los últimos años de mi vida, lejos de mis dos hijos, lejos de mi tierra, de mi casa, pagando por un crimen que yo no cometí mientras que el verdadero asesino debe estar entre ellos. (And here, you have me... in this cellar where I've spent the last years of my life, away from my two children, away from my land, of my home, paying for a crime that I never commited, whereas the true murderer... must be among them.)"'' |'''María Fernández Acuña''', Episode 2}}
 
Line 6:
After being released from jail, María returns to Mexico City with three purposes: to exact [[Revenge]] on her husband and friends who abandoned her to the Aruban justice system, to find Patricia's real murderer, and to be reunited with her children, who believe her to be deceased and, once she marries their father, think she is their stepmother.

=== This show provides examples of: ===
 
* [[Caught Onon Tape]]: Patricia's murder.
* [[Creepy Crossdresser]]: Shockingly not Bruno, but {{spoiler|Demetrio}}
* [[Deus Ex Machina]]: The convenient video tape of Patricia's murder, which despite ostensibly being home footage and not from a security camera, somehow involves numerous camera angles and cuts between the principle actors. Let's not even start on who is supposed to have recorded the footage...
Line 24 ⟶ 23:
* [[Villainous Incest]]: Alba's burning love for her nephew, Esteban, whom she raised following the deaths of his parents when he was young, brings this trope disturbingly close to [[Parental Incest]], too.
* [[Wakeup Makeup]]: Largely subverted. Fabiola, for example, is featured in a number of episodes sans her normally heavy make-up after emerging from the shower or before going to bed (cf. episodes 41 and 90, especially).
* [[What Do You Mean It Wasn't Made Onon Drugs?]]: The final ten or fifteen episodes in particular, in which {{spoiler|Esteban and Daniela are tried jointly in Aruba for Patricia's murder, despite there being no assumption or implication that the two committed the crime together. The red high-heeled killer is eventually revealed to be none other than Demetrio, whose masculinity had been so badly battered by the women in his life that he became a [[Creepy Crossdresser]] who [[Religion of Evil|worships la Santa Muerte]] and is generally crazy.}} WTF.
